We also spoke with journalists from RIA Novosti and RT about the rhetoric of the current moment.
She’s pretty tough. All political forces in Europe are trying to take advantage of this situation, frankly, to achieve their own internal political goals. And they exist in every country: some have elections, some have a crisis, some need to create a coalition with someone. And for this you always need to find a target or an enemy.
In this case, our country has been chosen as the enemy. Therefore, this rhetoric is not surprising to me, although it periodically goes off scale simply beyond understanding, beyond the line, as they say, of good and evil.
Modern Russia is just over 30 years old, and all these 30 years they have been trying to blame us for all mortal sins, especially in the last 20-odd years. The fact is that we are the ideological heirs of the Soviet Union, that we are this and that. Therefore, there is nothing new in Russophobic rhetoric.
From time to time we hear absolutely amazing words, but we are well-mannered people and never get personal. No one talks, for example, about the fact that there are people who clearly show signs of senile dementia or who are already on the path to senile dementia. Nobody remembers the grandfathers who fall on the plane steps, who cannot find the right direction to go to their office, and go somewhere into the bushes. Nobody talks about this because we are decent people and try not to think about such things. But this is a matter of culture and education.
